Friendly visitor needed for an 80-year-old neighbor in Ribeirão Preto

Wellington lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Wellington, who's 80. Wellington lives alone in Ribeirão Preto, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Wellington loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Glad we found this place.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Antônio. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Ribeirão Preto.
